The secretive Mother Gowther, like Craven, rarely performs in public. Even if she does, it is not the kind of public performance that the nobles and rich people of the Glory City who spend a lot of money can perform in Amphier Village.
No, it's not the first time.
Many villagers had no idea that she could dance so well.
The only flaw was the insignificant sound of sobbing and crying, which came from the ruins of the hotel behind the Happy Hall.
The villagers in Anfeil Village were surprised by the strange behavior and simply ignored it, and no one went there to investigate the cause.
But tomorrow morning, there was someone who broke that routine, and that person was naturally not like them.
For him, it was not difficult to escape from the party.
In name, he is the protagonist, but after he gets to know the people he needs to know, he basically has nothing to do with him anymore.
Especially after Gao Se's mother danced with the escort girl, no one cared about him.
I went straight to explore the ruins of a haunted hotel alone at night.
Not because he is talented and bold and thinks he has enough strength to face all changes, but because he knows the truth behind the Weeping Witch.
The Weeping Witch is not a real undead, but someone is pretending to be a ghost.
That point has been verified repeatedly by Gavin over the past few days.
The ruins of the hotel are desolate and desolate, but there is no trace of residual breath, let alone the breath of death.
Because of the immortality in his legs, Gavin's perception of that part was quite keen.
Do the undead souls rely on negative quantifiables to exist? If there are no negative quantifiables left, where can the undead come from?
The Weeping Witch's name is Filancini. She is not a witch but a powerful mage. She suffered a curse and was bound to another dimension by powerful magic.
She can then use her connection with the magic book to project her power back to Faerûn at a special time.
It is said that the magic book she holds in her leg originated from the Netheril Empire and the greatest great arcanist Iolum.
Is it the great arcanist Iolum who invented the Micer Core, raised the first floating city, and developed the Iolum Immortality Technique?
Or maybe he excavated the spiritual knowledge of the Zamdas Empire, integrated it with arcane magic, and created a new advanced professional arcanist.
Gavin doesn't know how true or false the legend is, because in his previous life, he never had the magic book in his lap, nor did he have direct contact with the Weeping Witch.
The only thing that was 100% certain was that the magic book contained the advanced knowledge he needed.
In other words, it is the easiest to get into the legs.
If there is trouble over there, or there is a mistake in the intelligence, he has a backup plan - then go directly to Ms. Taborah, Iolum's first disciple, who is at the Bagwit Hotel not far from here.
Is there a legendary arcanist who lives longer than ordinary dragons?
As for whether it was easy to find her, how to explain how he found her and convince her to impart the knowledge he needed was the biggest problem.
Unless absolutely necessary, Gavin really doesn't want to have close contact with a legendary spellcaster, especially a legendary arcanist who has bottomless knowledge. If he is not careful, he will be stripped of his pants.
In comparison, he prefers to take control of the situation in his own legs.
The Laughing Bandit Hotel is not the most standard square hotel layout.
There is a gate right in the middle. After entering, the corridor runs through the north and south, dividing the entire building into two. The rooms on both sides of the corridor are staggered and the layout and size are basically the same.
There are at least twenty rooms on each floor, and there are four floors in total.
That's enough to house a small army.
About 60% to 70% of the stone part is in good condition, and most of the parts can be repaired using complete repair techniques.
Those made of other materials have basically no repair value.
It's combustible and almost burned.
Most of those that are incombustible are melted and distorted, and their only value is that they cannot be remade.
Most of the place there remains as it was after the fire was extinguished.
This shows that in the next three years, people in Anfeier Village basically never visited there, and they were obviously full of fear of it.
Ever since Gavin stepped into the hotel, the sound of crying female voices has been surrounding him, either left or right, in front or behind, far or near, erratic.
But in Gavin's eyes, Wrong Fang's scary kicks were nothing more than a joke.
Don't forget, Gavin is now equipped with a sub-artifact, the Insight Gem, which opens the Eye of Truth.
Regardless of whether it is the Shadow Plane, the Fairy Plane, the Ethereal Plane, or the Demiplane, all invisibility abilities related to it are ineffective against him.
He found the source of the sound at a glance, but there was a vague mist, not even a shadow. It flashed from time to time. Every time it changed its position, the position of the sound would change.
Gavin didn't feel negative in the plane, so the Shadow Plane was eliminated.
The fairy plane is also closely related to itself, and the natural aura associated with it must be strong, so it is also excluded.
The greatest possibility left is the etheric plane.
If it can be said that the Feywild and the Shadow Plane are the physical echoes of the main plane, then the Ethereal Plane is not the spiritual echo.
Although it has material components, it is not affected by the mind and spirit, so it is also called the spiritual world.
Therefore, there is a huge gap in the understanding of the etheric plane between different people, and even different regions.
Some call it a holy land of faith because the spirits they believe in live there. Leatherman is a typical representative of that kind of country.
Some regard it as the birthplace of terror, and the people there never mention it. This situation usually occurs in small places with little information, or places that are secretly manipulated and ruled by interested people.
Some people regard it as a convenient place to travel, because there are ethereal curtains leading to the material plane, shadow plane, fey wilderness, and outer planes (earth, air, fire, water), passing through
They arrived at another plane, and what they did was usually not done by those spell casters. The more powerful spell casters, at least Gavin would not do that until he had an extraordinary level.
In fact, the etheric veil is not unfamiliar. In the rocky ground, the veil connecting the Fairy Wilderness Spring Bud Forest is not a standard etheric veil, and it is temporarily fixed.
In the Land of Three Rivers, on Fairy Midsummer Night, the temporary curtain leading to the Mother Dragon Oak Tree is also an etheric curtain. It fully demonstrates the plasticity of the etheric plane - the Land of Three Rivers and the Fairy Wilderness sing a song together,
There was a resonance between the two parties, and they used their own ideas to jointly shape the temporary curtain.
Due to the mental plasticity of the ether, it is easy for it to get entangled with those spiritually powerful creatures, especially spirits. Many spirit creatures have the ability to enter and exit the ether plane and hide in the ether for hunting.
Is that determined by the special relationship between the ether and the material plane?
If you can see the material plane at the border of the ether, your line of sight is relatively narrow, you can only see about ten meters. If you go deeper, it becomes fog, but if you are on the material plane, you cannot see the ether plane.
Is there a third kind of invisibility besides goblin invisibility and shadow invisibility?
Compared with the first two, that kind of invisibility is more common. All professional abilities, unless otherwise specified, when it comes to invisibility, refer to that kind of invisibility.
Because he believes that I cannot see him. When that belief is extremely firm, it will receive a response from the etheric plane, allowing it to blend into the etheric border and naturally disappear without a trace in the material plane.
Because of that characteristic, many people confuse the Shadow Plane with the Ethereal Plane.
The etheric plane is divided into the etheric border, the deep ether and the special etheric world.
The ether border is easy to understand. It is a place where it overlaps with other planes. You can see other planes in the ether, but it cannot be attacked or touched. You can pass directly through it because of the dimensions of both sides.
There is quite a fine line of difference.
The deep ether is purely external to the ether. Under normal circumstances, it is shrouded in all kinds of rolling mists. There are curtains of various colors everywhere, leading to different planes. Many powerful spellcasters will go there to find other places.
Plane methods.
As for the special etheric world, also called etheric space, it is shaped by a powerful being or a group of people, and has characteristics that are different from other places, ranging in size.
There is only one house in the small one, and there is no fog around it.
The larger one may be an isolated island or city in the mist.
Is there even a country with its own civilization? That would fall into the category of etheric civilization.
What Gavin was facing now was a mist of ether, showing a blurry image of a woman with disheveled hair.
Her strength was very limited. She couldn't even cross the etheric border and enter the material plane, so a monotonous crying sound came over her.
The unknown is the scariest thing.
Once the essence is seen through, its terrifying level will be greatly reduced.
Not to mention, Gavin himself mistook his lack of fear and mistook the etheric mist and said: "It's just a trick, it's very useful to scare ordinary people. If I pay him wrongly, I won't be seeking fame and wasting my energy. Let me
Open your eyes and see what scary art is."
After finishing speaking, Gavin found an open place to stand, took out a phantom crystal ball, filled it with spirit points, and threw it out.
As the negative quanta surged, a phantom curtain appeared out of thin air, and a phantom image began to play.
The phantom playing inside is none other than Regina's latest horror short film.
The main content of the short film is to use sound to create a scary atmosphere and scare people to death.
That one was an original story that was filmed by a professional opera bard and then edited.
The performance level of the actors in it is absolutely outstanding, and Bi Luo is very truth-seeking.
The sound of horror is Regina's specialty, and the atmosphere is absolutely right.
Compared with the obvious fluctuation of yin and yang, the sound of fear is composed of eighteen instruments.
The Crying Witch simply scares people with her cries, which is so hollow and boring.
The phantom horror short film only played for a few minutes, and the crying sound completely disappeared.
But if Gavin could see clearly, the foggy shadow did not disappear, but stayed a few meters away from the phantom, which meant that the other party was watching the phantom played by Gavin.
Gavin is the only one who can show ghost movies to ghosts.
After the screening of the phantom horror short film was over, Gavin put away the phantom spirit crystal ball, and then he looked at the shadow of the mist and said, "Now I know, that kind of pediatrician's intimidating legs are ineffective against him. Why don't they change them?"
Another way is to go east and have a chat. If I have any difficulties, I can tell him directly and he can find a way to help me solve it. Scaring people away is not the solution.
Even if I scare him away, it won’t be long before other people will come. After all, it’s a village there and we’re seeking business.”
The shadow of the mist actually reacted and floated directly in front of Gavin. It kept opening its mouth, as if it wanted to beg for something to say.
But when it reached Gavin's ears, it turned into a cry with different tones.
Seeing that situation, Gavin couldn't help but make a bold guess.
Maybe the Crying Witch didn't cry from the beginning to the end, but she wanted to communicate with others, but was restricted.
When the sound reached their ears, it turned into an out-and-out cry.
The more I think about it, the more I realize whether my guess is correct.
Gavin hurriedly asked: "What do I want to say? He couldn't understand. When we got to him, everything turned into crying. Can I hear him shut up? If not, they can change it."
way to communicate.
Can he see mine, so I can definitely use writing."
The crying stopped on the spot, and the shadow of the fog suddenly changed, and beautiful little characters composed of fog appeared out of thin air in front of the shadow of the fog.
The small characters are shaped like magic runes, weird and unique.
If the tattoo is not equipped with a gem of insight, it will take a lot of effort.
That text is not the text of the arcane empire of Netheril.
"Leave there, leave there forever. It's not where I should come. It's a cursed place. There are dangers I don't know about. Ignorant exploration will kill me. Leave there, warn others, and don't ask for permission.
They're close there."
A series of warnings and threats had one purpose, which was to make Gavin leave this place.
Gavin asked directly: "Do I agree with Filancini?"
That question directly caused all the small letters in the fog to collapse, and then a second later, new small letters in the fog condensed and emerged at a faster speed.
"Who am I? Who told me that name? What did I want to do when I got there?"
The corners of Gavin's mouth curled up, and he couldn't help but smile.
Although the wrong party did not answer his question directly, her reaction gave an indirect answer.
The shadow of the mist is the cursed witch Filancini. Her current form is probably due to the curse she received.
Gavin answered her question directly: "His name is Gavin, Gavin Nott, the new owner of that hotel. If he comes from the east, he will lead people to renovate the hotel and re-open this place. He will come here specially."
Come and let me know."
"He doesn't agree. He doesn't allow anyone to touch that land. There are dangers there that I don't know about. Leaving there and leaving it as it is now is not a good thing for everyone."
Even without using words, you can still feel the intensity and excitement in the host's words.
"Don't try to fool him with that kind of ambiguous rhetoric. It's useless for him to come up with something substantive and useful, such as where does the danger come from? If he judges that it is not true, he will naturally stop.
Action, otherwise he will think that I am pretending to be a ghost, deliberately intimidating others, and not wanting to let them get close to there and the secrets I hide there." Gavin's counterattack went straight to the core of the problem.
The secret hidden by the wrong party is probably none other than her magic book.
In other words, the magic book I need is probably hidden in the ruins of the hotel.
As for whether the magic book was destroyed by the original fire, Gavin had no worries at all.
Magic books are not ordinary books, they are usually protected by magical power.
Not to mention a magic book inherited from the Netheril era, which must have more magical powers.
"Get out of there, or I will die..." Liu Dong left unfinished words, and the shadow of the mist completely disappeared.
Those small words in the mist were transformed by consuming the mist in its body. They were completely consumed just now.
This shows how weak the crying witch really is.
Gavin sighed helplessly. He had contacted the wrong party, but it was almost like no contact at all. He didn't get any useful information from the wrong party at all.
Well, that's wrong.
There are two pieces of useful information.
For example, confirming the identity of the wrong party is Filancini, the owner of her target.
Another example is whether you are basically sure that your target does exist in that hotel.
That's not a small gain, after all, it's the first contact.
Of course, the wrong party has not dissipated and died. The shadow of the mist just now is not the true body of the wrong party, but a remote consciousness projection or the like.
Just ask the wrong party to accumulate some strength, and they will definitely be able to create a new one.
If you have a chance to continue contacting the Crying Witch, continue to do so.
The hotel was renovated and renovated, taking advantage of the time to restore the hotel and turn it upside down.
Just hope that if you find that magic book, Chengdong's problem will be solved.
Gavin is not a standard activist. They started taking action when the entire Amphier Village was sleeping.
"They followed the order of first easy and then difficult, first east and then on. They first used the well-preserved ones as the beginning of the supporting foundation part. Those rocks were not easy to move, and they kept them in their original positions until they moved to the third part.
Go through it once and for all, then go back and make repairs slowly."
This was not the first time that Gavin and the others had engaged in repair work, but it was the first time that they had repaired a large-scale building that was seriously damaged.
But it was not difficult for them. After a simple discussion, they decided on a basic maintenance plan.
Strengthening its foundation first to prevent it from collapsing is the most important thing.
In that matter, are the kobolds professional?
Most kobolds can tell at a glance whether the cave or stone building is in danger of large-scale landslides, and determine where the core load-bearing pillars are. Otherwise, their innate ability to survive, just like birds, can be determined at a glance.
You can determine whether they can fly through gaps in the distance.
